Skrypnyk Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 K, so I started off trying to remix a song by soc, and it ended up into something original (or very very faint remix). At that point I decided I need saxamaphoners to play some sexy sexy riffs. At THAT point, I thought it would fun to do a huge freestyling collab type thing. As of now, I'm open to pretty much anything going into this (as long as it fits). It's not meant to be anything HUGE, just a little something simple. So if YOU can play something (sax, vocals, piano, etc.) and you can get it recorded (higher the quality the better), then I want YOU!! A couple of rules: 1) Make sure your playing is good/on time. Re-do it if need be. 2) Make sure you have decent sound quality. If it's really poor I probably won't accept it. I think that's it. I trust most of you know what you're doing... Here is the basic layout for the song. Bassline goes from E, to D, and loops. Have super mega fun!!! =D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDRKirby(ISQ) Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 i thought for a second that you might be trying to start up another "FLexp" mega-flp.....but i guess this is cool too (though I lack any recording equipment of sorts). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Taucer Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I'd love to do some guitarrage for this. I'll see if I can post a demo of what I have in mind sometime in the next couple days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwordBreaker Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Soc? Who? I found this to be pretty catchy, though. So I did this short vocal take. Sending you an e-mail now, Skrypnyk. Read my notes for more details. Hope you enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwordBreaker Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Works for me. Ah. So Soc = overcoat, eh? Thanks for clearing that up. Wonder why some of you are surprised I didn't know, though? It's not that everyone has listened to all 1500 remixes of OCR. I currently have about 300 of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrypnyk Posted May 7, 2007 Author Share Posted May 7, 2007 ok, so the reaction I'm getting from this is pretty sweet. SwordBreaker, I have gotten your vocals and they're pretty rockin'. I'm just wondering if you're using a pro/semi-pro mic? The quality sounds a little weird when trying to mix it (otherwise I've found out I suck at mixing vocals D=!!) Plus it goes pretty well with Taucers guitar =D andyjayne, sweet sweet sweet sweet piano/e-piano. Is it possible to get each individual sample from you? High encoded MP3 is fine.

Glad you enjoyed it. I'm using a Shure SM57, which is what this community highly recommended. The weird quality could be a byproduct of the production I did with the vocals...it could be that I overcompressed them or something. Or it could be because I don't have a decent soundcard; I'm using my laptop's default SoundMAX soundcard and I'm plugging the mic directly into my laptop's microphone jack... BTW don't forget to post the track with everything mixed together. It'll be nice to hear the results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrypnyk Posted May 9, 2007 Author Share Posted May 9, 2007 Alrighty. So I compiled everything so far in a little short song. Click Me Because Taucer gave me a recording of the guitar with the original track, I used that as the main file, and having the guitar and e-piano playing at the same time was a little too much, I left out the e-piano. (Although I left a bit of it in...didn't want to completely leave it out ). Surprisingly no sax =o . Oh well, fun fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwordBreaker Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Sounds nice, man. Quite Jazzy. My voice sounds a bit overcompressed. My bad. Need to work on my compression skillz more. I would appreciate any tips on the matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwordBreaker Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Here's the "voice-only" version of the track for those who are curious. Hope you don't mind, Skrypnyk. http://www.esnips.com/doc/4169ecd5-7400-422c-bd02-5d618ce69b8d/Saxers-Fun-Collab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Taucer Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 I'll hopefully be able to get a cleaner, more finalized guitar recording pretty soon. THis sounds a bit chaotic; these elements won't all be going simultaneously in the final version, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrypnyk Posted May 10, 2007 Author Share Posted May 10, 2007 >___> I'll probably make it more balanced, less chaotic in the end. We'll see how this goes. Either something will happen, or something won't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
